In some countries I believe that the set of people who runs political affairs are the old ones and is really worrisome, talking about age range 70yrs and above. Like in my country where I'm from these set of people (politicians) just feel they are the only ones fit to run the country and you find it hard to see someone between the age of 40yrs and above to rule as president or any higher position, is really outrageous and irritating. Why is greed speaking more in politics? Must every politician(s) think only about themselves other than the citizens?

I really don't blame most countries that engages in protest year in year out, nobody would be happy to have guys who ship in money into the development of their own businesses other than developing the country.Discrimination based on age should not be tolerated in politics. I believe that the democratic system of government does not require a specific sort of person or age group to apply for a post. Age discrimination is solely used to characterize a government that is just interested in its own self-interest, giving the impression to the public that ruling is based on age and how much experience you have in that profession.

This is all a falsehood, and the sooner we speak out against this injustice, the better. Bravo to the countries who do not accept any sort of discrimination against their people; such citizens take action until the government complies to their requirements
